A toad wanted to be a police officer; For this reason, they called him Polysapo. When he went to study at the Officers' School, he was rejected for being too small, then for being too fat, then for being too slow... and finally for his green color. Polisapo wants to be a police officer, yes, but not at the cost of changing the color of his skin, of which he feels proud. The solution will be ideal: we become green police, that is, police who take care of the environment.
